MAC computer with OS 10.6 and Laserjet P1006 printer problems

HP says: The following HP LaserJets were not supported with the initial Mac OS X 10.6 release. HP is committed to providing Snow Leopard driver support for these models, and will provide updated information and software from www.hp.com/support .
HP LaserJet M1005 series
HP LaserJet P1006
HP LaserJet P1505
Where is the driver for LaserJet P1006 (B&W printer)? I upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.7 and now my HP LaserJet printer does not print. It says printer is off-line. Neither HP nor Apple has support. Thank you.

I am having the same problem. Mac 10.6 & LaserJet P1006

HP LaserJet P1006 Driver problems, 2008 Terminal Server

I have a few P1006 LaserJets and have not had much success with them since we have moved them onto thin clients. They were on full XP machines and now they are hooked to XP thin clients. The printers install on the thin clients and can print from the thin clients fine, but when they connect to the terminal server they can get maybe one page to print at best.
We are running Windows Server 2008 for terminal services and I am using the latest version of the printer driver from the HP website on both the thin clients and the server. The driver is the 4/18/2008 or 1.0.5 version.
The driver works fine when printing locally, but when there is a redirected job from a terminal session they get maybe one page before the spooler crashes. The driver loads when they start their remote session and the printer is available (the drivers are signed so the system seems to like them). Unfortunately the Easy Share Print Driver doesn't work at all so that doesn't help.
It seems there is just enough difference between the XP and Vista kernel versions of the driver to cause problems. It's possible someone sharing this printer on an XP machine and trying to print to it from a Vista desktop would have similar problems.
Any suggestions?

I have the same problem. The local computer is running Vista Business with a P1006 attached via USB. The user remotes (using RDP through an HP MediaSmart Server) into another Vista Business machine. The user can print one document, then nothing. I checked the remote computer's printer queue and there were no jobs listed. I checked the local computer's printer queue and there were over 600 jobs. The user did try to print several times, but certainly not that many times.
I cleared the queue by doing right-click - Run as Administrator - Cancel All Documents. But, I still can't print anything, not even a test page. I had to reboot the computer.
So something is definitely wrong with the drivers for this printer.
Are these forums monitored by HP, or just the community?

Printing problems with HP LaserJet P1006 - UGH!

I have an HP LaserJet P1006 directly connected (wired w/ USB cable) to a computer that runs Win XP. It will at times just stop printing. For example, most recently, it ran out of paper while printing something. I put more paper in but and pressed the start button and it would do nothing. I tried to turn it off for the recommended 30 seconds, when I turned it back in, it still did not print. As recommended, I restarted the computer, and tried to print again, but no luck. I know that I can uninstall and reinstall the printer and that should fix it, but it is frustrating to have to do this frequently.
Are there any fixes to resolve this problem from repeatedly happening?
Any help would be appreciated.

I have consistently had the same problem. You are not alone. I have not figured the solution. In fact I came across your message in my search for a solution.

Print problem with HP LaserJet P1006 since 17/10/2011

We received our client reporting that they use the HP LaserJet P1006 to print a PDF with portugese. The preview is fine. However, the output of the portugese words are changed to font named "Wingdings". I viewed the property of the PDF file - fonts tab. All fonts are embeded. This error occured on this Monday. Why...? Thanks a lot.

Help! I am having problems printing to HP LaserJet P1006? How can I get it to work?

Hey All! I have an old iMac that I am having a few issues with getting it to print with my HP LaserJet P1006. It will print from MS Word, but not any other program. Whenever I try to print from any other program (Excel, Preview, Firefox browser) it says that the print job has been stopped, and if I try to restart it or resend it to the printer, it simply stops it again and I have no idea why. I have already tried all of the basics (restarting my computer, reinstalling the driver, unplugging and restarting the printer, etc) and am at a loss. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Might try these two...

Laserjet P1006 works better but not good enough in Windows 8.1

Background: I ran the Windows 8 pre-install check for hardware compatibility. It said I would be able to use my HP Laserjet P1006. That was wrong. The printer never worked once under Windows 8.0. That was over a year without a home printer unless I carried it to my wife's Windows 7 laptop to use.
Current situation: I got the Windows 8.1 upgrade (64-bit). The drivers are now available. I re-installed the Laserjet P1006 and it can be used from my desktop and shared to my wife's Windows 7 on the wireless home network.
Issues:
1) if paper runs out there is no way to restart the printing and the print must be cancelled from the X button on the printer... because there is nothing on the print queue after paper runs out.
2) if you don't wait for the printout to finish before you print another document, then the printer will hang for a very long time (20 minutes) and eventually print the end of document 1 and then document 2. Apparently this is related to 1) above, because the print queue will only show the second document when the first is still not completed.
3) even with power saver turned OFF, drives off NEVER, etc. the network sharing of this printer requires that I wake the monitors, enter the password, and finally STOP/START the SPOOLER SERVICE. Even then it's likely we won't get the shared printer to work on the same day... but likely it will print much later when some miracle occurs.
I have some other printers that have recently been gifted with W8.1 drivers. I can try them to see if these spool and communication problems are pervasive (Windows 8.1) or specific to the P1006 driver.
I have actually loaded the HASP deck for an NJE/RJE station on the TUCC. My first PC was an OSBORNE I. I cut my teeth on KIM-1 and Commodore P.E.T. machines.

Hi AZBen,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I read your post and you are having issues printing and using the printer sharing.
I will be happy to help you.
The printer has a USB connection and works properly when connected directly to a computer by a USB connection through the software.
Can't guarantee printer sharing will work.
You want to use the normal USB slot 2.0 not the latest USB 3.0. USB 3.0 are supposed to be backwards compatible.
Temporarily turn off and any Firewalls and Antivirus software to see if this will resolve the issue.
Hope this helps.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
Have a wonderful day!

HP Laserjet P1006 is not working on Windows 7 (64-bit).

I lost my original CD-Driver and I tried to download the CD-Driver on HP website but it doesn't work when I click printing. It seems that my HP Laserjet P1006 is not working on Windows 7 (64-bit).
Can anyone give me a link that works for installing driver for HP Laserjet P1006 for Windows 7 (64-bit)?
Thanks for helping!

Hi @achieverone ,
I can help you with finding the drivers for the Laserjet P1006.
Just to clarify, you were able to install the printer software, but it just isn't printing correct?
Here are the two drivers available for Windows 7 64 bit.
HP LaserJet P1000-P1500 Hostbased Plug and Play Basic Driver.
HP LaserJet P1005/P1006/P1500 Printer Series Full Feature Software and Driver.
Try and print a hardware self test on the printer to find out if it is a hardware or software issue.
Open and close the lid five times quickly. It should print off a page with black lines on it.
Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
If you need further assistance, just let me know.
Have a great day!
Thank You.

Laserjet P1006 does not print in windows 7 x64 even though the status of the printer is "printing"

HP LaserJet P1006
Windows 7 64-bit
No error message
No changes made to system, it never worked after installing Windows 7 64-bit
- printer properly installed and recognized as ready when plugged in
- when trying to print everything goes normal: document added in printer queue > printer status changes to printing
- but it just stays in "printing" for a few minutes and then it acts like it successfuly printed the document, showing to error, clearing the queue and going back to ready status
- and no page is being printed
- the printer harware works, because on other operating systems is has no problems (tested on two other computers): with other OS it works but with windows 7 x64 it doesn't work on another computer either
Can anyone help me with this?

HI,
Look at Wifi Guy's post on 10-15-2009, titled Solved Photosmart C7280 All in One. Worked for me. Had been running around in circles for the last two weeks. Hope it works for you.
Good luck!

HP printer has stopped working - Laserjet p1006

I just installed Windows® 8 Consumer Preview and my HP printer has stopped working. I am using the Laserjet p1006 and I have tried everything, reinstalling the printer, re-downloading drivers etc. but to no avail. Are there new drivers available that work with Windows 8?
Update:
The printer is installed and driver has been picked up by Windows but every time I try and print something, it gives me an error that the document could not be printed.
Any suggestions

Really Thanks God

Note : after doing the pervious steps if u turned the printer off u will need to connect it to windows 7 pc again and print and connect it to windows 8 it will work without the pervious steps //
it seems like if windows 7 gives it information that is reseted after turn it off
we wish windows 8 to solve this problem nearly

Hey @wmowafi,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you're experiencing a slow printing issue on Windows 8.1 when printing to your HP Laserjet P1006 Printer. I would like to work with you today at resolving this issue. Now the only driver available for your product on Windows 8.1 is a hostbased plug and play basic generic driver. Therefore, there is limitations for what can be done for troubleshooting. As you stated, you have already attempted an uninstalled and reinstalled of the driver to no avail. I'm going to suggest some further steps and tools to resolve this issue for you.
Step 1: Uninstall Your Printer:
Disconnect your USB cable
Click the following link: Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled to access the Microsoft Uninstall Tool.
Once the website opens, select Run Now on the right hand side
Allow the Tool to run.
When prompted choose Uninstall
A list of programs should populate and you're looking for the Laserjet. It may appear as LJ P1000 series. Please select the Laserjet series and Uninstall it.
If the Laserjet doesn't show in the list of programs than your Windows 8.1 computer does not see the Laserjet driver as properly installed.
Step 2: Clear the Temp Files:
Launch your Start screen by right clicking on the Windows icon on the bottom left of your screen or by select the Windows button on your keyboard located to the right of the Ctrl button.
Once the Start screen launches, type the word Run
Click on Run to launch it
In the Run box type %temp% and select OK
Once the Temp folder opens, hold down Ctrl + A at the same time on your keyboard and everything will highlight in the folder. Select 'Delete' on your keyboard. Don't worry, no files or folders on your actual computer will be removed during this process. If a file is still be used on your computer you will get a pop up to 'skip' the file
Once the Temp folder is emptied of its files, close the window
On your Desktop, right click on the Recycling Bin and left click on 'Empty Recycling Bin'
Restart you computer
Step 3: Reinstall the Laserjet P1006:
Please keep your USB cable disconnected
Click on the following link: HP LaserJet P1000-P1500 Hostbased Plug and Play Basic Driver
The driver page for your product will now launch
Select Download and allow the download to Run
Once the download is complete an extraction will automatically run and once completed the installer will launch
Run through the step-by-step on screen instructions.
Please do not plug in your USB cable until prompted
Ensure that your USB cable is plugged in from the rear of the printer directly to the computer. Avoid extenders or docking stations as they can cause printing and communication issues.
Test printing!
Please let me know if the steps I've provided resolve your issue. Good luck!

HP Laserjet P1006 won't print "Printer Offline"

My hp laserjet p1006 won't print and the error message says "printer offline". The printer does show up in System Profiler. The printer is on, and connected via USB. Ready light on printer is on. Sometimes the orange light blinks but is mostly off. I tried different USB ports (eliminating the hub) and switched out the USB cable. Restarted computer and printer, updated driver and repaired disk permissions. I recently switched to Snow Leopard but the printer has printed since I switched numerous times.
I had this problem 2 weeks ago and finally it fixed itself, but since a restart it doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Yes, I just downloaded the Apple HP update 2.3. The driver that was showing in my Printer Setup Utility was 1.2.0.224. Now I downloaded and installed 2.3 but the Printer Setup Utility only shows 1.2.0.224. 2.3 is not listed in the driver list. Why is that?
2.3 is the version of the update, not the version of the driver.
According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669, 1.2.0.224 is the correct version of the HP driver.
Final question: why do I have problems nobody else does?
People are having a variety of problems. It may be because of permissions, previous versions of the HP software that was installed and not deleted. Since there wasn't support for this printer on Snow Leopard until the 2.2 update, it's hard to guess what the issue was, but you're not alone - read some of threads here.
If you run into this problem again, delete the <hard drive>/Library/Printers/hp folder, delete your printer from Print & Fax, then run Software Update and re-add the printer.
Hope this helps.

HP LaserJet P1006 refuses to print after a paper jam

I've used an HP LaserJet P1006 for 3 years now and it has performed without a hitch (I don't print that much). However, recently it swallowed a sheet of paper in a rather crooked fashion that left it gasping, and I had to shut it down. I was abled to carefully remove the paper after first removing the ink cartridge, but when I tried to print again, it would not do it. I went through the entire check-up procedure the manual suggests, but no dice, it refuses to print. This morning I tried something I did not tried before, which was printing a "Demo Page" under the "Print Information Pages" of the "services" tab of the "Printing Preferences" menu. To my surprise it printed the Demo Page. However, it refuses to print anything else, like the "print test page" or print from any other program. Intimidation with a sledge hammer doesn't work either. Any ideas anyone? I'd appreciate your comments. Thanks. JD
WindowsXP

Thanks for the tip Royal_KB, I tried what you suggested but no dice.
I tried the HP Print Diagnostic Utility v4.1 with the following results:
1) Before I tried to print, I clicked on the FIX button and it said: "No problems were found for HP laserJet P1006" and all checkmark circles are green. A small window pops up that states: ""The HP Print Diagnostic Utility is not detecting any remaining issues. Click PRINT A TEST PAGE to check your printer operation"". I click to print, and a second window asks if I really want to print. I say YES, but no printing takes place, the printer doesn't even attempt to print, though the light on the printer is green. So I click on RETEST I get the same behavior all over again. ""No problems were found for HP laserJet P1006"" and all checkmark circles are green. I try everything suggested by the HPPDU v4.1 and I find myself in a catch 22 situation, so I do 2) next
2) I go to PRINTING PREFERENCES > SERVICES tab > PRINT INFORMATION PAGES > select DEMO PAGE > PRINT button..............The printer then turns on, and prints a perfect demo page of the printer. I have tried to make this printer print through other programs and test pages etc. etc., but the Demo Page is the only thing it will print. I'd appreciate any other suggestions. Trebuchet candidate maybe?
Thanks

HP Laserjet P1006 suddenly quit printing wirelessly - in between print jobs. Instantly.

Hi -
I used to be able to print wirelessly from my macbook Pro (OSX 10.8.3) to my Laserjet P1006.
I can still print if I plug in via USB, but as soon as I unplug, the "print and scan" window says my printer is offline.
I was inbetween print jobs when suddenly the printer stopped allowing my computer to print wirelessly. There was nothing I could see that would have set it off.
I have tried shutting everything down (computer and printer, even wireless router) and turning back on.
I have tried telling computer not to remember printer... then connecting again with USB to get it to recognize as new. That didn't work.
I tried to follow instructions for MAC and for this specific printer from a post someone else made, but the instructions said to hit utility from the "Open Print Queue" window and I didn't have that option. It also said to look for Bonjour, I didnt' have that option.
I'm frazzled.
How can I get my wireless connection back?
This question was solved.

Hi,
Teh Laserjet P1006 is a USB only printer and does not provide any wireless connection:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01173154&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en...
May you connected the pritner to a print server (a USB port of a router, etc.) in the past? yje specific model does not support any connection without using a USB.
